How to remove battery cable bracket from back of block

Unfortunately, this is one of those situations when the manual doesn't tell you how to remove it. It just tells you to remove it. See attached. Which means they just figured the mechanic would figure it out.

It has been a while since I did this but from what I remember, I use a swivel socket and air ratchet to get it off. I included the OEM part number for the battery cable but they are normally 6 gauge wire size if you would like to build your own.

Let me know if you have questions and we can go from there.

It should be a thirteen millimeter nut on a thirteen millimeter stud, but the easiest way would be to just bend the bracket away from the cable and slide the cable out or cut the cable with wire cutters. I usually just cut the cable because the stud ends up spinning with the nut, and if you are replacing it anyways. Anything smaller than 4 gauge will be too small.

Yeah. I am pretty sure you need a swivel socket and an extension so that the ratchet is out in space to turn it. More then likely you will need an 18 or 24 inch extension to get the angle correct and give yourself some space to turn the ratchet.

That's good news. Some of these are not fun and you end up getting into positions that most think are not possible. Thanks for the update.

Awesome! Those are never fun!
